Song of Hope Award recipient announced for 2024

Marshall Howden, founder of the Song of Hope movement and Song of Hope Museum, has announced the recipient of the 2024 Song of Hope Award.

"We have awarded the 2024 Song of Hope Award to the Brett Family," said Howden. "This award is given every year to the individual or family who has spent a career advocating for the live music shows and theaters in Branson, Missouri."

Howden continued, "It was apropos that we presented this award to the family at their Nest Concert Venue. This intimate performing center has provided a space for local artists to share their original music and showcase their talents. Beyond that, the Brett Family members have always championed songwriting in this community and have a long legacy of their own on a Branson stage."

Previous recipients of the Song of Hope Award are Mike Patrick (2020), The Hughes Family (2021), Doug Gabriel (2022) and Jim Barber (2023).

Said Howden, "Please help me in congratulating the Brett Family."
